Chemical composition of Lepidium meyenii

Food Chemistry, 1994
Abstract Lepidium meyenii Walpers, a tuber of Andine origin still cultivated in Peru for local preparation, was studied. The carbohydrate, lipid, protein, fibre and also the amino-acid, fatty acid, mineral and sterol fractions were determined. The results show that the tuber is nutritionally interesting. Alkaloid-like compounds were also found.

Composition of the essential oil of Lepidium meyenii (Walp.)

Phytochemistry, 2002
The essential oil profile of maca (Lepidium meyenii) obtained from Lima, Peru, was examined. Steam distillates of the aerial parts of L. meyenii were continuously extracted with pentane and the pentane extracts analyzed by GC/MS. Retention indices and mass spectral data were used to identify 53 oil components. Phenyl acetonitrile (85.9%), benzaldehyde (

The in vitro biological activity of Lepidium meyenii extracts

Cell Biology and Toxicology, 2006
The biological activity of methanolic and aqueous extracts from dehydrated hypocotyls of Lepidium meyenii (Brassicaceae, vernacular name "maca"), was studied on rat hepatocytes and human breast cancer MCF-7 cells. The extracts did not exhibit cytotoxicity in hepatocyte primary cultures up to 10 mg/ml as measured by the MTT viability test, and lactate ...

Neuroprotective effects of Lepidium meyenii (Maca)

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010
The neuroprotective activity of the plant Lepidium meyenii (Maca) was studied in two experimental models: in vitro and in vivo. Crayfish neurons were pretreated with vehicle or the pentane extract from Maca, subjected to H2O2, and their viability determined microscopically and chemically.

Glucosinolates from Maca (Lepidium meyenii)

Biochemical Systematics and Ecology, 2002
Maca (Lepidium meyenii Walp) is a food plant belonging to the Cruciferae family. It is very interesting because it has one of the highest frost tolerances of any cultivated plant and can be grown at high altitudes (3800–4800 m) (Bonnier, 1986). Maca dry tubers were bought from INIA (Instituto National de Investigation Agroindustrial de Huancayo, Peru);

Chemical composition and health effects of maca (Lepidium meyenii)

Food Chemistry, 2019
Maca (Lepidium meyenii Walpers) has emerged as a popular functional plant food due to various claimed health effects. This review details the major (i.e., starch, dietary fiber, and protein) and minor constituents (i.e., minerals, non-starch polysaccharides, polyphenols (flavonolignans), macaenes, macamides, glucosinolates, and alkaloids) of maca (root
